June, 1903. This caused the collapse of the retaining wall

recently built and extended to a portion of the supported bank

further west. Mr. Wei Yuk proceeded to reconstruct the wall and

Copy on the 2nd. February, 1904, I addressed a letter to him

of which I enclose requesting him to extend the wall for the

full length of the bank. The work of reinstating and extending

the wall was completed about June, 1904, the extent of the wall

being indicated by pink colour on the tracing.

*

A third landslip occurred about the begin-

-ning of August, 1905. This carried away that portion of the

wall cross-hatched in blue on the tracing or so injured it as

to necessitate its demolition and reconstruction. On this

occasion I addressed a letter to Government on the subject

and, as the result of correspondence with Mr. Wei Yuk, a plan

for reinstating the damaged portion of the wall was, on the 5th.

September, deposited by Messrs. Weaser and Raven, Authorized

Architects. I approved of the plan on condition that the 4

buttresses, which are also cross-hatched in blue on the tracing,

were added and the work was carried out in due course. Permis-

-sion was granted in December for the construction of some

channels on the bank above the reinstated portion of the wall

subject to the reservation that the Government undertook no

responsibility for their maintenance or for anything arising out

of their construction.

The fourth landslip occurred on the 29th.

September, 1906, and this time the portions of the wall cross-

-hatched in red were destroyed.

I then wrote a letter, a copy of which I

enclose, to the lessee, who is the wife of Mr. Wei Yuk. I also

enclose the reply I received and a letter from the Manager of

the Mercantile Bank of India, Limited., who are the holders of

the First Mortgage over the lot.

With regard to the statement in Mr.

Ormiston's letter that the nullahs on Government land above
